- Cardiff manager Neil Warnock will hope to make minimal changes to his side after their impressive 1-0 win away to Leicester on Saturday.
- Warnock may opt to add fresh legs on the flanks by restoring Nathaniel Mendez-Laing and Joe Bennett to the starting XI, while Joe Ralls will also push for a starting berth in the middle.

- Serge Aurier returned to training before Tottenham’s shock 3-1 home loss to Wolves on Saturday and will push to start against Cardiff on New Year’s Day.
- Danny Rose and Juan Foyth are also expected back in Tottenham’s defence given the sharp turnaround between matches.
- Lucas Moura dropped to the bench against Wolves but should be restored to the starting XI by Pochettino here.

Top Players
- Cardiff are three points clear of the bottom three after finishing 2018 with a 1-0 win away to Leicester. Neil Warnock’s side have kept successive clean sheets in the Premier League.
- Talk of Tottenham challenging for the title only last a few days after slipping to a shock 3-1 home defeat to Wolves at the weekend. Mauricio Pochettino will demand an immediate response from his players, as Chelsea are only two points behind them in fourth.
- Cardiff have not scored a goal in any of their last six matches against Tottenham and getting on the scoresheet would be a start. Tottenham have won the last three meetings 1-0 and it would be a surprise if they didn’t leave Wales on New Year’s Day with all three points.
